the cloth market there is animated business
but mostly of a nd-to-mouth character. India

Green Z Co S report on cotton futures saws:
There has been considerable animation on old
crop months, the opening showing fractional
weakness on August, followed by sharp ad-
vance of some II points Then a set back to
about last evenings figures, and finally a
Steadier tone again. Liverpool advceS probably
contributed in measure to the early improve
ment, but the market is generally looked upon
as mainly subject to local manipulation Deal
ing in new crop is moderate and apparently
cautious, but the market held up fairly well on
some dry weather reports. and more or less

CHICAGO, July 20.-The destruction of about
1000, 600 bushels of wheat by fire at Minneapolis
and drought news had firm influence on the
wheat market at the opening. August started
&c higher at 7115c. Fluctuations of the first
hour sent it down to 10tSd1c and up to 7l14c.
The latter figure brought out such liberal offer
ings that it took but a short time to bring about
a reaction to 7034c. Still laterit firmed up again
to 711Sc, principally on private dispatches re-
porting damage by chinch bugs in the southern
part of the State At noon August stood steady
at II nc, subject to fair amount of local trade
of a scalping character. The close was slow at
705Bc Corn was decidedly the centre of attrac-
ton at the opening. The crowd all at once
woke I'D to the fact that there was too much
company on the long side of corn and that the
drought had not yet assumed dangerous as
pect Nearly everybody began selling, and the
pit was soon Seething mass OF excited brokers.
The few bears saw their advantage and helped
to fan the excitement into a flercer flame. Au-
gust corn opened Ac lower at 3S2sc and sold
down to 3734c before the excitement was stayed.
Additional drought news came in and a reaction
set in, which took it back to 38c. At this figure
the market became quite steady and firm. The
little afternoon reports showed that the grow
ing crop in this State is not seriously injured,
supposed and the longs began to sell freely,
causing August to sell off to 3714c, from which
figures it reacted to 1880 and closed at 37]6c.
Oats were easier, and, with the exception of
July, sold down 3sc. August opened at 2616c
and closed at 25z6c. Provisions were quite ac-
tive and the market was considerably unsettled.
Large receipts and lower prices of hogs, to-
gether with improved prospects for the corn
crop, had a weakening influence on provisions
and longs were disposed TO realize. The demand
was quite active mainly from shorts. Lard was
easier August opened at So So, sold down TO
So 90, the closing figure Short ribs were weak.
August opened at 81 &c. sold down to 81 7219 and
closed at 81 IN.
